ATTACHMENT A Response to Notice of Violation Violation Technical Specification Section 3.15.2.E and 3.15.2.F describe operation with an inoperable battery and battery charger, respectively.
Technical Specification Section 3.15.2.H states:
If more than one of the conditions specified in Section 3.15.2. A, 3.15.2.8, 3.15.2.C, 3.15.2.D, 3.15.2.E, 3.15.2.F and 3.15.2.G occur concurrently, the reactor of the affected unit shall be brought to the hot shutdown condition immediately.
Contrary to the above, from 10:20 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Decembe r 12, 1982, Unit 1 was operated with both the 112 battery and 112 battery charger isolated from bus 112 in violation o f Technical Specification 3.15.2.H.
, Corrective Action Taken ano Results Achieved The initial corrective action taken was that the affected personnel were reinstructed on the importance of compliance with Technical Specifications.
Corrective Action To Be Taken To Avoid Further Non-Compliance To further ensure compliance with Technical Specification 3.15.2 on the Auxiliary Electric Power System, a change to Periodic Test Procedure PT-14, " Inoperable Equipment Surveillance Tests" will be made to insure that Technical Specification 3.15.2.H (which requires immediate Unit shutdown with the concurrent inoperability o f more than one item o f Auxiliary Power equipment) is reviewed prior to taking an Auxiliary Power system component out o f service.
Also Technical Specification Section 3.15 will be reviewed and, i f needed, an appropriate Technical Specifica-tion change will be submitted to clarify this section.
Date When Full Compliance Will Be Met The revision to Periodic Test Procedure PT-14 will De completed by May 1, 1982.
The review o f Technical Specificatior Section 3.15.2 will be completed on a schedule consistent witn that being developed for Zion's complete list of outstanding Technical Specification submittals, with input and concurrence from the NRC's Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
